Drew's white blood count is on the upward trend, which is a good sign. He needed a platelet transfusion today, but is going well. The Dietitian said if Drew keeps eating the way he is, he may prove her wrong and be the first patient not to need a nasal gastro tube, and he is determined not to have one put back in. Heather (the play therapist) put a WII in Drew's room today and he had fun with both Heather and Barbara (Ward Nanny) playing bowling and baseball.
